MUD LAKE/WEST JEFFERSON COUNTY (1U2) sits at Mud Lake, Idaho. Field elevation is 4,795 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 04/22, which is 2,950 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current Chart Supplement or local procedures say otherwise. That puts the light piston pattern at about 5,795 ft MSL. Magnetic variation is 16°, so runway headings are magnetic. The field is a simple one-runway airport, but the published remarks matter. Runway 22 has low intensity threshold lights. The first 600 ft of runway 22 has low intensity edge lights. The remaining 2,700 ft is lit with solar lights. Low intensity runway lights on runway 22 and the rotating beacon are inoperative each year from November 1 to April 1.

There are no on-field FBOs listed. Emergency fuel service is available only for Jet-A and 100LL. Call the airport manager at 208-663-4840 to confirm snow removal and winter conditions before you go. The published obstructions near both runway ends deserve attention. Night operations are recommended only for pilots familiar with the airport approaches and surrounding terrain. Clearance delivery can be handled through Salt Lake ARTCC at 801-320-2568.
